The team wants to evaluate a new procedure for using a clarification request, but withdrawing the current support could create safety concerns. Across 4 sessions in service week 34, 3 observers recorded 18 minutes of observation in the telehealth caregiver meeting. The BCBA should:

This choice is weaker because it does not resolve the key prerequisite in the scenario: the team wants to evaluate a new procedure for using a clarification request, but withdrawing the current support could create safety concerns. Across 4 sessions in service week 34, 3 observers recorded 18 minutes of observation in the telehealth caregiver meeting. The BCBA should:

Then answer a few related scenarios before moving back to broad practice.

Does the answer protect experimental control and avoid unsupported causal claims?

AB design with no replication. This often shows up as using reversal for irreversible skills..

Rewrite the miss as a rule: "When I see Single-case design selection, I must identify the relevant evidence before choosing the action." Then answer two related D domain questions without reading explanations first.

Practice 3 more questions tagged to Single-case design selection, then explain why each wrong answer is weaker before moving back to mixed practice.

This choice weakens the data basis for the decision. A defensible answer must check whether the measurement, observation, or visual-analysis evidence supports the next step.
